[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 103039, member: 3626"] I would never consider taking away birthday celebrations or Christmas as a consequence, especially not for school behavior. I'm not all that convinced he was lying, at least not to him. I know my daughter's logic would say there's no reason to do something if she was getting a zero anyway. It wouldn't matter that the teacher required it, there is no way she would see any need to do it and, in her mind, that would make sense. It would not make any sense to do something just because she might learn something. If she was going to get a zero no matter what, she wasn't going to do it. That simple. I think no computer privileges until the project is done would be very fair. At least he'd have a reason for doing it. Maybe even toss in a letter of apology for all the hoops the adults had to go through to get him to do his work. After that, I'd let it go. [/QUOTE]
